This dude has my respect for sluffing off the criticisms of Marxist nitwits like Kathy Griffin.
Kevin Hart's Camp Responds to Kathy Griffin Smear: āPeople are Tired of Political Banter from Comedians'
Kevin Hart's Camp Responds to Kathy Griffin Smear: āPeople are Tired of Political Banter from Comedians'
āI do feel (Kathy Griffin) like this is such an anxiety-ridden time for everyone that there is a thirst for all kinds of comedy,ā she said in an interview with USA Today. āAnd look, if you want to not hear about Trump at all, go see Kevin Hart. He doesnāt even mention Trump. I personally think thatās a pussy move because heās a black man. But I guess heās selling more tickets than I ever will.ā
Griffinās comments enraged many on social media, with users accusing her of arrogance and categorizing black people. The 56-year-old comedienne has become a controversial figure since she was photographed holding up Donald Trumpās severed head.
Hart, meanwhile, has previously spoken of the risk of āalienatingā an audience when comedians become political.
āWhen you jump into that political realm youāre alienating some of your audience,ā Hart said in an interview with Variety last May. āThe world today, itās really not a laughing matter. Itās serious. I donāt want to draw attention to things I donāt have nice things to say about.ā
